Christmas album news: the Pistol Annies

Country music trio Pistol Annies unveil their first Christmas album, Hell of a Holiday, on Oct. 22 via RCA Nashville. Listen to the first single “Snow Globe” here.

“We couldn’t be happier we got to make a Christmas Album. Once we finally surrendered and let the Christmas songwriting spirit take over, we were so inspired and felt that magic on every single one of these songs,” said the trio’s Miranda Lambert, Ashley Monroe, and Angaleena Presley. “We hope to be a part of so many people’s Christmas memories for years to come.”

Hell of a Holiday includes 10 festive original tracks written by the Annies and some traditional ones too, such as “Sleigh Ride,” Merle Haggard’s “If We Make it Through December” and a reimagined “Auld Lang Syne.” Photographer and artist Gina Binkley created the cover artwork.

This marks the fourth studio album for the trio, following their Grammy-nominated 2018 project Interstate Gospel. They recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of their Platinum-certified debut release “Hell on Heels,” the title track of their acclaimed first album.
